What with Valentine's Day coming up, a season of Angel could be the perfect way to tell the one you love "I want to lounge around with you for seventeen hours while watching fights and quips and doors getting ripped off their hinges and angst and silliness and rain-soaked alley scenes and bad Irish accents and moments of acting so brilliant they make you want to cry.

Or you could pick up something at Dru's House of Human Hearts, but at least Amazon delivers.

I'm ashamed to admit that I've never owned a box set of any Whedon show other than "Firefly" because, well, I'm a cheapskate who used to live near a really good video store that stocked everything. But a. I've missed big chunks of Angel Season II, and b. I'm a musical freak who needs to know EVERYTHING about OMWF, so it was now easy to justify the purchase of Buffy Season VI. I also had $30.00 off coming from Amazon anyway because I took their credit card offer.

The fact that I'm of the same ethnic extraction as Willow Rosenberg is entirely coincidental.

An excellent resource for searching out the best prices is http://www.DVDpricesearch.com

In related news, is anyone a fan of Xena or Highlander? In late-February there will be a price drop on Xena, Hercules, Highlander, and Highlander the Raven tv series. DeepDiscountDVD.com has already repriced these particular series. Xena and Highlander is dropping to $30 per season, and Hercules is dropping to less than $20 per season. This includes the later seasons!

...and speaking of Amazon sales, I just received an eMail from Amazon UK announcing a "Love Yourself" Valentine's sale on hot items, including "Loveable New Music," "Talked About Books," and "Scorching DVDs" with Serenity as the featured "scorcher." (Eleven pounds, ninety-nine, for those of you who might be counting.)
